To me Petersburg High School is a lot of things. The teachers don't just feel like teachers some of them feel like family and they really try to help you when you're having trouble with the subject. Petersburg High School is always gonna have good or bad times but when you graduate it most definitely will feel like home to you.

I love the teachers and the effort they put into teaching, however I do wish they had more activities for kids to so. Like different courses. This is of course probably a financial issue. One day hopefully someone can help the school out to give the kids more opportunities

The teachers are actively to teaching the students we get the help we need in order to learn what we have to. We stay back for help when u need it an they try to work as a time in the learning process for us. They work with us on how the mange the outside world of learning an prepare us for things to come if we have set backs, they are always there to help us. They try there best to keep the community involved in the learning process an try to get us involved in all different culture events to prepare us for life ahead.
